In general you can guarantee a post deletion where you've posted personal material accidentally or someone else has done so about you. Other deletions will be considered. Mere embarrassment at your own stupidity isn't reason enough to delete a post, particularly if everyone else is finding it hilarious.

People posting racism, sexism, transphobia, general out of order awfulness, spam are generally ripe for a banning but sometimes one post isn't really enough. Worth pointing out several instances if you're going by a prolonged attack of dreadful as part of a ban request.

Posts containing racism, sexism, transphobia, general out of order awfulness can also be deleted. However, deleting a post destroys all the replies to that post and sometimes it's better to leave it stand if the replies are a good indicator of how wrong the post is and turn the thing on its head.

for their sake really, so that I still take them seriously. Being a badass, anti-establishment maverick, I see them post and just think "PREFECT!" and then move on. It's a shame, because they might actually have something decent to contribute, but my rampant prejudices blind me to it.

about why he deleted several comments in the conor orbest thread which were part of quite an important discussion. pretty disturbing that we're not allowed to talk about that on here just because it worries sean.

Until asean can get a permanent link sorted on these pages showing moderation rules, this thread or a similar one is needed to make sure casual users or new users realise they can request the most "Nuts readers with record collections" posts aren't something we want to keep.

I know you don't normally like doing that sort of thing, but the new username will also be the name for my new 'rap act', so it is sort of legitimate, you can also look forward to my 'new user' responding to threads in impromptu 'rapping slang' using my 'stree' pov.

I started a thread asking what had happened to the thread about punk music, and my thread's now also disappeared.

I think it's time to regulate drownedinsound.com's moderation and administration...what constitutes sufficient grounds for thread deletion and/or user banning? There should be a full list of rules and regulations.

just puzzled as to why the thread i started was deemed so bad as to need to be removed........it was prompted by the dis trope whereby we inanely conflate two threads themes.....which is what i did....in the tailor swift thread, I had ovserved that some elebs were violent with their makeup.....Theos anti butter thread had suprisingly long legs.....I even macheteied a pat of butter on video cos it was such a thing.....I and other dissers had remonstrated with theo about how great butter was ON toast and ON bread........as I said I conflated the threads, and whilst I was aware it was mildly mischieviously double entendre ish. I didnt think it was that terrible.
Especially given the nature of other threads.

Apparently I am mistaken, but in which case could you please explain what makes this worse than I obviously thought that it was.

its a common enough dis trope to barely pass without comment or thought.......
There was a big thing about Theo not liking butter, and some of us thinking he was crazy for this......others had already made mild cheeky references about butter..

Then there was another thread, about taylor swift, about whom I do not have an opinion.....other than that 'she wears make up violently' and drew a comparrison between this factor and Katy Parry and Rita Ora.

I then did 'the dis thing' of mashing threads and said 'FAO theo would you prefer butter on a, b or c?' (a, b or c being the three pop stars in the other thread).......it was a throwaway standard format dis joke....utilising the other dis standard joke of theo being a monster (when we all actually know hes a lovely mild (sorry theo) bloke who wouldnt hurt a fly (sorry theo)...he is the opposite of a sexist monster (which is why we joke about him being one)

At no point did i insinuate or indicate that 'I WANTED' or even say 'SMEAR' and 'young girls'? Is Katy Perry a young girl?

It is this last aspect which makes me feel that you are deliberately attacking me, because it is Soooo far from the truth, you are taking advantage of my age, and the fact that there is a huge predjudice waiting to take down older men.

Why am I so fucking angry? because Im the other way from what you say, yet i get measured and judged by exploiters and mysoginists from my generation.......I sometimes pm women on this site......if any of them here think I've ever propositioned them or said anything untoward or inappropriate in these then they can use this opportunity to speak up.

What you have posted up there is something that is serious in light of how people assume that someone is old is somehow 'dirtier' or whatever than younger people.....which is actual bollocks, because I don't like a lot of attitudes of younger people.

Try to show some responsibility.

I may be an annoying bastard, I may be inane, I may be unfunny and I may be arrogant, but to make up such a post as you did up there is unwarrented.

barely register on my conciousness. I do not fancy them, I fancy more complex women than the visual avatars that the modern generation drools over.
I find generic mtv videos intensly boring.

an example of who I do fancy (although her freindship with cameroon has put me right off) is helena bonham carter......or shirley mansun, or Darcy Wretsky......or Joanna Lumley or Tilda Swinton, or rachel weisz or fenella fielding,

I don't know who deleted your thread and why, but from what I've read it sounds like it made a few people feel uncomfortable. I'm not going to apologise on behalf of anyone, but I will apologise for you not being notified why the thread was deleted or there not being any communication in that respect. Take care.

I've had a PM from sean (yes THAT sean) saying that he thinks all you mods are slack as fuck and probably spend most of your days sucking your own dicks (I told him they weren't all male, but he just slapped me in the face, open palm, so I shut the fuck up).

Anyway, he said that I needed to post this reply and any MOD who hadn't ^This'd it by March 1st would have their MOD status revoked by ohgood, so look sharp.

El Silo presents the official music video for his latest single “You Gotta Know” featuring Zack Murphy.

Fusing contemporary Hip Hop flavors with a trap beat and auto-tune sounds of R&B, Silo’s new single seeks to connect with the listener in multiple ways. Emphasising the importance of hard work and sacrifice, he discusses subjects that are real to so many, life as he lives it and sees it.

Visually, the music video captures El Silo in an abandoned factory street, moving from one place to the next, a nod to the past, present and the future.

Born in Morocco and now living in Holland, El Silo cites the likes of J.Cole and Kendrick Lamar as major inspiration. While Silo is still attempting to make a breakthrough, with hard work he hopes to be making some major moves in 2016. Stay tuned
